WASTED




Heads turn as he struts by
Exaggerated intelligence
Wall Street Gladiator
Freshly mowed grass
Diesel fumes linger
Pungent city scents
An ambulance screams
Shrill harbinger
Another violent statistic
Lost adolescence
Dreams of lofty heights
His warm blood
Splattered on the chilly sidewalk
Sarcastic street encounter
Fatal robbery
Wasted
In the blink of an eye
Frantic friends and family
Left to wonder why

About Me

My photo
Wherever He leads me.
If I flow it Will you read it? Will you feel it As I bleed it? Because you see I need it To justify my trip My words A pointed tip Dipped in sacred blood Precursor To the coming flood A gift from God My KING A beautiful thing To serve His higher cause I'm not seeking vain applause Simply Clarity For this lost world to see His grace Sweet charity Unconditional love And peace My ultimate release SELAH…….
